English Engineering builds two types of glass bottom boat:-
A flat bottom viewer carrying up to 50 passengers.
A ‘V’ bottom viewer carrying up to 40 passengers
Glass bottom boats are used extensively by day cruise operators and island resorts on The Great Barrier Reef for the purpose of viewing corals and marine life.
Glass bottom boats are versatile in that they serve as a transit vessel, as well as a coral/marine life viewer.
A glass bottom boat is an ideal addition to any superyacht and to small ship passenger cruise lines. Captain Cook Cruises Fiji recently took delivery of a new ‘V’bottom viewer with lifting platform (pictured below).
English Engineering constructed a version of the ‘V’ bottom viewer for use as a night dive vessel for Lizard Island Resort on The Great Barrier Reef.
As with all the vessels built by English Engineering, the dimensions can be adjusted to the wishes of each client.
